Biochem/physiol Actions

BPC 157 is a gut peptide and possesses free radical scavenging activity. This peptide stimulates nitric oxide synthase generation and therefore offers gastric cytoprotection. Unlike other peptides, BPC 157 is effective without a carrier. It participates in muscle healing and is used in the treatment of gastrocnemius muscle complex.
BPC 157 is a stable gastric pentadecapeptide that exhibit anti-ulcer and wounds/fistulas healing properties. BPC 157 reduces immediate and delayed damage induced brain trauma and improves nerve regeneration after transection. BPC 157 displays antianxiety and antidepressant effects. It appears that BPC 157 promotes proliferation, migration, and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells through activation of ERK1/2 phosphorylation.
